Sooo goood

Nov 25, 2011

I had picked a bottle of this up I got on discount in the mid to high 20's and had it in my wine rack for few years. My brother had heard about it and didn't believe I had one. At Thanksgiving I finally cracked it open and it was sooo good. I did not even know it was from Toro, which has been a favorite wine area of mine since tasting Numanthia Toro/Termes. I had the 2003 FS Reserve Especial and it had smoky, deep flavor, very well-rounded, full-bodied. Can't vouch for other years but this one was just all around good. My family described it as being a tempranillo with an added taste and smell of a good cologne if that makes any sense. Good, different and sumptuous.

About Toro

Toro is in northwest Spain, less than 50 miles from the Portuguese border, on the banks of the Duero River (which becomes the Douro in Portugal). Tempranillo (called Tinto de Toro here) dominates but there are also scattered plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot Toro wines.

Toro wines are powerful and high in alcohol, often with a distinctly roasted, meaty character.
